SURE

In June 2005, Sartoria invited Dorothée Perret of Purple Magazine, Emma Reeves of Another Magazine and Dazed&Confused, Sophie Morner of Capricious and Tricia Jones of i-D to participate in an unprecedented focus group on behalf of NikeWomen. What came about was a noteworthy collection of considerations and notes; visual and emotional notes that became the backbone for a performance piece called “SURE. Shall We Talk About It?” that hit the scenes in autumn, that same year.

With a line up of ten dancers, directed and choreographed by Constanza Macras, SURE was designed to unite dance and performance with drama and a savvy look at the many faces of contemporary women. Argentinian director Constanza Macras thus described her work on the play: “SURE is a continual contamination: it isn’t only dance, it isn’t only theater, and it isn’t dance-theater. It’s about working with texts and music and improvising with the dancers and the musicians.”
